Financial review
The Foundation owns subsidiary companies engaged in the comrnercial exploitation of IP right5 in nutriceuticals.
The Foundation relies for its income on both an investment portfolio and GiftAid donations from these commercial
subsidiaries which manage royalties from patents and trademarks, together with trading in nutriceutica15 under
licensed agreements.
The Foundation'5 only direct subsidiary is Howard Foundatiot) Holding5 Limited IHFHI. which manages and directs
(Trne other active subsidiary trading company, namely Nutriproducts Limited INPI. HFH has received quarterly
royalties fiorn Howard Foundation Research LimitÈd IHFRI. While royaltle5 have continued through FYIFinancial
Yearl 21122. despite attempt5 to help find potential investors, HFR is expected to cease trading during the latter
part of the FY 22123.
The trading activities of NP continue to increase despite the COVID pandemic. The position of Macuhealth USA
continues to be particularly strong. They capitalised on their direct connection with eye health professionals and
Set up online training which helped to boost sales. They are also adding new online distributors and have adopted
a new formulation with improved bioavailability resulting in part from research work funded by the Foundation at
NRcI/wiT. It is expected that this will lead to increased sales in all territories.
Macuprirne Ltd, based in Ireland and set up in April 2019, is the Macuhealth company for the UK and Europea
market. They began sales in Ireland but the COVID pandemic held back their growth durtng FY20121 due to
restrictions on travel and personal contact. They have continued to increase sales in Ireland and are becoming well
represented in local pharmacies. The Macuhealth parent company are looking for ways to increase marketing and
distribution into both the UK and other EU countries.

The Howard Foundation
Report by the Trustee5 for the year ended 5 April 2022 Icontinuedl
Flnancial review Itontlnuedl
A company in Norway ha5 begun to market a new product usit)g ingredients from IOSA (the production partner for
NP) that are covered by existing HFH patents and so generating a new royalty to NP.
The major research activity funded by the Foundation in recent years has been tOWaTds supplements for blain
health, in particular for the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer'5 disease. This has resulted in the 'Memory
Health" produtt launched in the USA in 2018. Sale5 have been slowly increasing through online marketing. It is
hoped that, as a result of the publication of the ReMIND papèr in the summer of 2022. sales will increase further
during 2022 and 2023. Macuprime have now launched the product in EUIUK as 'ReMind" Iwww.remind.eul.
HFH has continued the strategy for managing its patent portfolio that was adopted in 2021 with relevant patents
being renewed during the period. A patent for "Prevention ond/or treotment of neurodegenerotive disease. was
granted in Ireland in June 2021 and in Singapore in Septernber 2021. Patents have already been granted in the UK
and USA. Further applications are pending.
Gift Aid from HFH and NP had been paid regvlarly since the Foundation was founded up until 2018. This
represented è majority of the subsidi31y's net profits year on year. In thi5 finantial year. gift aid of £284,000 has
been rrade from the business to the Foundation.
Both HFH and NP retain adequate working fund5 to manage themselve5 and invest in research and development.
The major continuing commitrrent from the Foundation is for Howard Chair in Human Nutrition at SETU. There
are pending di5CUs5ions as to whether the change from WIT to SETU will affect the current agreement but at
present no significant change 15 expected. The costs of this commitrnent are more than coverÈd by the existing
investments of the charitv.
The Foundation has agreed to fund a FhD Student at SETU over four years lat É4.500 per academic yearl together
with covering the costs of the SNIPE research projett (estimated at É83,500 to be paid in FY 221231.
The Foundation is also funding the insta113tion of a tree sculpture. designed by the art15t Ai Weiwei. at Downing
College with a plaque in memory of Dr Alan Howard. This is due to be installed in July 2022. The Foundation has
offered to pay up to £28,250 towards this of which £12,500 was paid in February 2022. The remaining balance for
this is estimated at £15,750.
The Foundation 15 considering funding a second lerture at the Royal School of Medicine at a cost of £20.000. likely
to be held in Autumn 2022.
Investmentpolicy ondperformance
The Foundation and it5 5ub5idiary IHFHI invest through Asset Management Cornpanies or directly throu8h an
advised stock holding programme, backed by cash reserve5. The Foundation'5 investments are mainly held in Euro
denominated or linked funds owing to commitments to the Chair at SETU and the associated research prDjectS
being payable In Euros.
Rlsk monagement
The principal risks faced by the Foundation lie in the performance of its investments and operational risks from
both ineffective grant making and performance of the trading subsidiaries.
The main form of financial risk faced by the Foundation is that the primary income stream is from donation5 under
Gift Aid from its subsidiary companie5 and this is dependent on them remaining profitable. The Trustees are in
regular contact with the directors of the 5ub5idiaries and manage financial risk by only committing to future grants
once the anticipated levels of profitability for each accounting period are reasonably certain.
The Foundation also faces financial risk from the volatility in equity markets and investment markets due to wider
economic ctsnditions. The Trustees manage the risk through 5è1eeting funds which are well manaeed bv
experienced managers within reputable institutions. A spread of investments helps to reduce the risk of the
portfolio as a whole.

Responsibilities of Trustee5
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees Responsibilities set out on page 5, the Trustee5 are
responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fail
view. and for such internal control a5 the Trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial
Statements that are free from fflaterial mi55tatement. whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Trustee5 are responsible for assessing the ChaTity'S ability to continue as
going ctsn￿rn, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of
accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the Charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic
alternative but to do so.
Our responslbllltles for the audtt of the financlal statements
We have been appointed as auditor under Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant
regulation5 madè or having effect thereunder.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements a5 B whole are free
from material Thisstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our
opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance. but 15 not a guarantee that an audit conducted in
accordance with ISAS IUKI will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatement5 can arise from
fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected
to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basi5 of these financial statements.
IrreEularities. including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures
in line with tsur responsibilities, outlined above. to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities,
includiff g fraud. The extent to which our procedvres are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is
detailed below..
The extent to which the audit was consldered capable of deterting irrègularltles Including fraud
Our approach to identifyin8 and a55es5ing the risks of material misstatements in respect of irregularities. including
fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was 35 follows..
the engagernent principal ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence.
capabilities and skills to identify or recogni5e non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations..
we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the Charity through discussions with the Trustees and
other inforrned management which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial
statemenis or the operations of the Charity and thereafter, the audit team remained alert to instance5 of non-
compliance throughot&t the audit.

The Howard Foundation
Independent Auditors, Report to the Trustees ofThe Howard Foundation
Our responsibilitie5 for the audlt of the financial statements
We a55e55ed the susceptibility of the Charity's financial statement5 to material misstatement, including obtaining
an understanding of how fraud might occur. by-
making enquiries of rnanagement a5 to where they considered there was 5USteptibility to fraud, their
knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud and;
considering the internal controls in place to miti8ate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and
regulation5.
To address the risk of fraud through management bTa5 and override of controls, we..
performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships;
tested journal entrie5 to identify unusual transactions.
a55essed whether judgement5 and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates were
indicative of potential bias.. and investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions.
In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with law5 and regulations, we designed procedures
which included, but were not limited to..
agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying 5upporttng documentation-
enquiring of management as to actual and potential litl8ation and claims.
reading the minutes of meeting5 of those charged with governance.
There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures de5tribed above. The more removed that laws and
regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance.
Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify no)n-compliance with laws and regulation5
to enquiry of the Trustees and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if
anv.
Material misstatement5 that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they
may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.
A further description of our responsibilities for the 3udit of the financial Statements is located on the Financial
Reporting Countil's website at www.frc.orE.uklauditorsre5ponsibilities. This description forms part of our
auditOf'5 report.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the Charity's Trustees, as a body. in accordance with Section 144 of the Charities Act
2011 and regulations made under Section 154 of that Act. Our audit work has been undertaken 50 that we might
state to the Charity'5 Trustees those matters we are required to state to the Trustees in an auditors, report and for
no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume re5pon5ibility to anyone
other than the Charity and the CharitV'5 Trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions
we have fortHed.
